Instant Reactivation Feature

You can press the button at any time to instantly start over. This is a great feature to use if you want to eminently turn a TV back on.

Stealth Mode

‘Stealth Mode’ will limit the number of times the LED light will display. To operate in ‘Stealth Mode’ simply double click the button and the LED will flash once when it starts and it will flash 8 times when it finishes.

We have 2 models of TV-B-Gone

North American & Asian model

European model

The North American & Asian model works for televisions in US, Canada, Mexico, as well as many Asian countries (may also work in other countries that use NTSC video). The European model works for televisions in European countries and Australia (may also work in other countries that use PAL or SECAM video).

Tips on effective use of your TV-B-Gone

Your TV-B-Gone remote control is very small and weighs very little compared to most other remote controls. The batteries are also extremely small, but be assured that batteries (watch batteries) are included and already installed within the device!!!

It may take up to 69 seconds for the television to turn off, but most TVs will turn off within the first few seconds. Although we tried our best to make your TV-B-Gone remote control turn off any and all TV’s, there may be some few that it won’t turn off.

Instant Reactivation Feature: This new feature allows you to press the button at any time to RESTART transmission of all of its infrared codes. Since the codes for the most popular TVs are closest to the beginning of the sequence, you can shut off more TVs faster, without waiting the full 69 seconds, as with the original version.

Bigger Battery: Another new feature is that it has a bigger battery, allowing it to last even longer than the original model.

Flashing LED: This light indicates that the unit is sending out its signal. (If you don’t want the flashing LED on, simply double-click at the beginning of a new sequence.) The small, clear emitter node at the front will not light up or glow – actually, it does light up with infra-red light but you can’t see it!

Battery Replacement

Remove the screw and pry the two plastic halves apart.

Remove all batteries from both sides (labeled B1 and B2) of the board.

Place one new CR2032 battery in B1 and one new CR2032 battery in B2. The plus (+) side of each battery should face away from the board. Both batteries are CR2032 3v lithium coin cell batteries.(The original model TV-B-Gone remotes came with three 2016 batteries but from our research we found it best to put in two 2032 batteries instead, which are bigger, longer lasting and almost the same price. We recommend it when replacing the batteries in all TV-B-Gone models.)

Place the board into the top plastic half. Make sure the switch on the board faces the inside of the top plastic half.
